 There are the following issues at the moment:
 
-First, follow the setup instructions.
-Then you should run GNUe AppServer in a terminal with the option
-'--database pim-backend', ie:
-gacvs --database pim-backend -Z
-('scripts/start-appserver.sh' is provided to do that).
-Open another terminal and use GNUe Forms to open the file
-gnue-pim.gfd.

+Usage:
+- Follow the setup instructions.
+- Run GNUe AppServer in a terminal with the option '--database pim-backend', ie
+    gacvs --database pim-backend -Z
+    ('scripts/start-appserver.sh' is provided to do that).
+- Open another terminal and use GNUe Forms to open the file pim.gfd.
+- You should add persons first with the 'Edit' button next to the topmost
+    dropdown. When you are finished with adding persons, close that form and
+    select a person from the dropdown and add/edit his/her addresses
+    with the first 'Manage' button.
+    It opens up a form, where on the left you see addresses stored
+    in the system (it is empty at first, push 'Edit' button and
+    add some addresses). When you have addresses, you can move them to the
+    right (that shows addresses bound to the given person) with the
+    'Add' button or remove bound addresses with the 'Remove' button.
+    Once ready, hit 'Close' and you get back to the main form, now showing
+    addresses linked to the selected person.
+    Same behaviour can be expected with the other two 'Manage' buttons.
+    
 The GNUe-PIM project is known to be running on GNUe AppServer version

 is an exact copy of that found in GNUe AppServer's /share directory.
